Why are we so behind everything?

Have anyone felt so caged and locked? Especially in this age of internet, where you can get a glimpse of how large the world is and life can be! If you rationally compare your national position in this world, how does it make you feel like?

I feel no affection for my country. I know very little but I grabbed some knowledge about my country and its history, it doesn’t make me feel good. Very little opportunity, entrepreneurs, no one encourages you to do something DIFFERENT! everything is at the speed of 0.5. Why are we not as creative as the western folks?? What is the most logical answer to it?

I am genuinely curious so if anyone has some Insight into why it is the way it is please tell me
